What is Avandia?

Avandia (rosiglitazone), manufactured by GlaxoSmithKline, is a top-selling drug for Type II diabetes.

Who takes it, and for what condition?

People with Type II diabetes take Avandia.

How does Avandia work?

Avandia helps control blood sugar levels by making diabetics more sensitive to their own insulin.

Studies have found that people who take Avandia have an increased risk for heart attacks and strokes.

On September 23, 2010 the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced that it will restrict the use of Avandia to patients with Type II diabetes who cannot control their diabetes with other medications.
